Legal standards, ethical standards, and responses to social-sexual conduct at work
Abstract
When individuals investigate a sexual harassment claim that stems from a dissolved workplace romance, their responses to the claim are likely influenced by their ethical standards and legal standards. We propose a person-situation interactionist decision-making process through which investigators' ethical standards may override legal standards when responding to social-sexual conduct at work.
